I actually never thought about it until now. I hope it evens out since people who I like can use it too, and I like far more people than I dislike.

I don’t like it when underprivileged people get the short end of the stick. It sucks.
But trains are awesome, and it is IMPOSSIBLE to create the infrastructure we desperately need without some people being inconvenienced.
They’re fixed rates, maybe that’s a good idea!
lol how tight would it be if I could buy my own mortgages off of the bank for a discount
What’s wrong with potato salad?
No that’s why I clarified foreign spending instead of domestic
How about a wealth tax for people with over $10 million dollars of assets
How about tripling the size of the IRS (or more) so that the government actually gets what it’s supposed to
How about cutting foreign defense spending
How about increasing the corporate tax rate even just a little bit
Or only paying social security to people who need it
Or getting rid of insanely wasteful farm subsidies
But yes, I think we actually agree, that people who come here need to be paid a fair wage. That was really my point. When people talk about immigration to fix labor shortages, they almost always mean minimum wage or thereabouts (or even lower like for farm workers).
Yes exactly, thank you.
Why do they need immigrants? There are people here now who need jobs, they can do it.
If I hear “immigrants will accept lower wages” one more fucking time I’m going to lose it, that’s just an intentional creation of a lower class, it’s feudalistic and coercive. Same thing with farm labor. Pay a reasonable amount and local people will do it.
But on npr this morning they said wage growth has outpaced inflation
The truly rich would be fine. They don’t pay income tax, they live off of capital gains.
That’s just punishing people at the top of the working class. Doctors, lawyers, etc.
Tax cuts for the rich are capital gains tax cuts and corporate tax cuts.
Income tax cuts don’t impact them, broadly.
Can we do mandatory civil service instead
Like that would actually help people, building infrastructure, national parks, gaining skills and trades, maybe helping reduce obesity
Someone explain to me how this would benefit the rich. The rich don’t pay income tax.
I hear you, but I disagree. My people are great at slacking me or each other when they need stuff. We have a great collaborative atmosphere. They set up meetings with each other and with me as needed, and I’ve heard over and over that they really like that. I have weekly 1:1 meetings with each of them, and usually we hang up after 15 minutes because they know what they’re doing and can get back to it.
your friends
Single player supremacy
I’m still enjoying civ5 without any DLC
Imagine actually going to daily standup, wow
I made a daily meeting invite, and told my team to never show up to it. Lets them show up to work an hour later since I put it in the calendar for 930-10.
Correct it doesn’t, I agree. But that’s the status quo, that’s what the prosecution has to fight against. They ARE on their back foot because of Trump’s enormous and violent following. And when you’re on your back foot, you have to be perfect. It’s unfair and it’s total shit. But they screwed up.
You guys don’t iron clothes?
I’m a millennial and I iron my clothes, how do you get the wrinkles out??? Teach me your secrets
